- Rex Hunt/3AW call the start of the 1989 VFL Grand Final. Mark Yeates lands a huge hit on Dermott Brereton. This video also features Gary Ablett and Jason Dunstall kicking the opening goals for both the Hawthorn Hawks and Geelong Cats.
I remember watching this as a kid and is still the best grand final that has ever been played ..go hawks
I miss Rex one of the all time great commentators
The Greatest
And you will hear some quite staggering news soon
@@gorgen23 Health issues?
@@BabylonCentral no
@@BabylonCentralI miss all these commentators 🇦🇺
It wasn't the bump that put Brereton down. Yeates followed it up with a knee to the ribs, which the cameras somehow missed. You can see it just before they cut away at 0:54
No, he never kneed him, it was a straight-right across the chops.
@@hanajinks1044 He kneed him.
@billwhite9703
The guy above said "the cameras missed it" but they didn't, it's just that it's rarely been shown anywhere. I just wish l could remember where l saw it as it was ages ago.
Whether it was a knee or a whack across the chops, it was great work. As the commentator said, get in first on the dirty dog.
@@tosgem
I was there - the only problem was S Hocking not following up and knocking him out as he went for that mark once he'd gone to the Pocket - we'd have won if he did.
Seen every grand final since 83 and this is still no 1, followed by perhaps 2005
The greatest match ever played
Yeah, Nah!
The absolute best GF I've ever watched...Dipierdomenico got an absolute touch up in, I think the 3rd quarter, as well. But the question that has stumped humanity ever since: Why was goal-kicking easier back then?
"Why was goal-kicking easier back then?" Because in those days they played Foot!!! Ball. Today it's more like cross country Basket Ball where nobody knows how to kick the ball anymore.
Power forwards are gone
Flooding zones
Possession football
Long bombs into forward very rare
You could say the game is faster, but gayer. 😉
@@Rockhopper1163 I believe today's style of play has contributed to the rise in concussion cases. The result of flooding has put more players on the ball increasing the risk of contact. When it was a position game you didn't have so many players fighting over the ball.
It's because the AFL wanted more of a basketball style game with the ball going from end to end more quickly. Forwards get dragged up the ground and then need to sprint back the forward line. Back in these days forwards stayed forward mostly and they were more able to settle themselves for shots on goal. Jason Dunstall didn't go chasing kicks on the wing or half back.
@@Rockhopper1163 Christ you're a weirdo.
The great footy days unlike today's garbage. All bloody robots.
Except Corbin Middlemas and Alister Nicholson.
Footy was better back then.
Back when football was great and wait for it… no head clashes!
Looked like Dermott was lining up someone for a hit but he was taken out before he could connect.
That was the plan. He was after Couch. But Yeates knew he would try it so got in first.
That was a pay back to Dermott from earlier that year at a game at Princess Park...Dermott pushes Yeats over the fence.. l was at that game also the GF
Mullets, mullets everywhere.
Proper footy!.... Nuff said!.
Why did it stop there ? Was it not the whole purpose to see Dermie get knocked over and then recover to mark and goal ?
Agree, can never understand how we’ve never seen the rest of the footage. Surely the camera just didn’t stop filming as the square graphic closed?
@@KB-th9jm Cameraman didn't want people to know Geelong are a pack of dogs. Couldn't win a GF then, can't now. Losers, all of them.
Cen you Find Rox Hunt Call of the Famous 1989 Vfl Grand Final Epic Between Geelong vs Hawthorn if you Can Thanks Mate Let me You
As in the whole Call or just parts. I was thinking about uploading the video footage with the commentary how does that sound?
@@banliveexport325could u do that
Ideal
@@banliveexport325 Did you do this? thanks
Sam Newman was commenting for channel 7 wow. I only know him as channel 9 boy
Stopped it at the best part at the end
Agreed!!!
Mitsubishi Magna ad on the side....my first car...and what a car...
That Bloody Yates from Geelong did it you will pay if you haven't already been 😅
When Australia was great
So true.
100% This was Footy at it's absolute peak. Footy today is a joke compared to those days
@@MikeSoutham For me Footy peaked in the 90s. But I agree 100% 80s footy was so much better than footy in 2024.
Aus was never gonna stay great for ever ! 😊
@@banliveexport325your absolutely right no comparison 🇦🇺
It is Ron barrassie
Most noticeable part for me is that the forwards didnt have a stupidly long runup or process, use their 30 seconds ect, just a few steps and kick the ball.
Who is the other main commentator calling with Rex?
Bill Jacobs
Tommy Lahiff!, 😅
@@tonyq39 definitely Jacobs, Lahiff didn't do in-game commentary
@@sentimentalbloke185in game commentary?
@@gorgen23 in-game commentary
Dermot went down like a bag of spuds.😂
As would anyone who had this happen to them. Absolute muppet
@@darrenbaker6019 the leagues biggest sniper got sniped. Justice ⚖️
@@C.A.MARSUPIAL-ys6tlIt’s how you come back that matters. DB dishes it out for sure, but he also cops it back and takes it square on the chin. He was prepared to get right amongst it with some of the toughest hombres around. I am no DB, Hawthorn or even AFL fan, but DB is a legend.
@@useruseruseruseruser790 he didn't take it back like a man. He try to get the guy who hit him in a pub in England on a after season trip. He was all upset that someone got him for a change. Like a true sniper he can give it but he can't take it. The player who hit him approached to apologise but sniper Brereton wouldn't let bygones be bygones. He just wanted to fight. I said nothing about his playing ability. One of the greatest centre half forwards ever.
And Dermie took the mark and kicked the goal !
And put another flag in the trophy room!!
I must say the Hawthorn players looked far more flamboyant. Flowing mullets and super tight shorts. Geelong seemed a lot more conservative working class. Also, sucked in Dermott. Karma's a beach.
Worst mullet competition. Dipper wins hands down with the mullet-mo combo.
Hawthorne were some ugly motherfuckers in some ugly colors
Back when men were men, and mullets were mullets
Brereton was a CAT😊
Hawthorn won 😀
That bump on Bereton is ok. AFL chiefs should make it ok by today. Lol.
"Half a fortnight", that would be a week ya muppet
who is the girl with the mullet lol
Dermie was always flaccid 😂 Not much going on there. Imagine how he’d take an NRL hit! He wouldn’t walk for weeks 😂😂😂
They didn't show all of it. Dermis was as tough as they come.
You are pathetic. I'm no Brereton fan but he was bloody tough. It was a knee to the ribs as he got up that hurt him, and it would hurt anyone.
Still on off-the-ball incident.
Yeah, but we're not watching NRL, are we. And for good reason.
Lol geelong. Call themselves the cats but are a pack of dogs. 2008 GF still brings a tear to my eye!
When Footy was footy and not the Aboriginal league, miss the old days of MEN.
Typical VFL/AFL coward hit. Nothing sportsman about this at all. And then he came back and had a huge game.
Stamping it out of the game these days, thankfully. Can actually watch a tightly-contested final without worrying it'll be decided by a cowardly act rather than skill.
Boring to watch
When footy was played by men, I can't watch the AFL now, boring weak crap.
Sad for you. The UFC's right there if you want a fistfight instead of a footy game.
What is the philosophical definition of "sport"? Should it include all that crazy physical thuggery (e.g. stray elbows in eye sockets), because it is a legitimate part of the psychological component of sport? It is! Or, does "sport" revolve around technical talent and prowess? Gotta admit...Rugby Union is a far superior spectacle, product, and even contest after years of cleaning it up via professionalism.
This is the stupidest sport ever
sport?
